Mentor Chronograph 711
A simple and unusual complication with 2 pushers giving a stop-start red second hand function. Large for the period being 38mm wide ex crown. A plain manual movement. The dial is well-executed and complimented by the gold hands and hour markers, blue inner and red outer tachygraph. The chrono function is strange in that it stops the entire watch when held - not really terribly useful for any long-term use but perhaps for very short timing for medical purposes it has a place.
